Letter to My First Nation

Dear (MY) First Nation staff,

Please stop sending my mail to my Mom’s house and now my cousin that I rarely get a chance to see. Please also call me INSTEAD of my Mom when mail is returned to you because someone put the wrong address in a computer somewhere.

You have my phone number. I’ve talked to a few of you on the phone so I know my number is in the office somewhere and just about everyone on staff is a cousin for goodness sake. I’ve lived in the same house for 13 years and gotten mail up until this year just fine.

Chateau Ste Michelle Harvest Select Sweet Riesling 2011

sweet rieslingOne night on facebook a friend posted about a twitter wine tasting she was participating in. It really caught my attention because:

a) she has good taste
b) I like to tweet with her regularly, so how fun would a wine tasting be
c) She was tasting Chateau Ste Michelle rieslings and that is my current wine infatuation!
d) I had plenty of warning so I could grab a bottle as well

Save Me From Remodeling HELL!

Oh man, this has been a long week. Being offline has actually come quite naturally, since I’m wishing for my allergy death any way. My brain can’t focus long enough to get through very emails, let alone actually work. lol

We’re remodeling and it’s my fault. I take full responsibility for the disaster my house is right now after 5 days. UGHHHH. This started because we had a leaky skylight two years ago. Hubby fixed the skylight but the ceiling damage was too much and it was only getting worse by the month. I have a lot of allergies and mold is at the top. So instead of going on vacation with JUST MY HUBBY…I said, let’s do a staycation and fix it. Both our kids were out of town for spring break for the same 4 days. It was fate right?
